Entry Description

This project for National Museum of World Writing intended to create an architectural ‘PAGES’, filled with everything about world writing. It is a mediation space which links people to people, people to museum, and museum to the site, just as how writing & page have bridged together the past, present, and future. The site is located at the edge, between the man-made city grids (Straight line) and nature made park (curvature line). Rather than dominating vertical mass, PAGES takes nature curved shape and it represents the true meaning of park which offers relief and relaxation to urban context.
